Oh, don't worry about a website. As long as it's fine in PS, that's the only thing that matters.

That looks right to me? I even downloaded your screenshot, and copied the loupe area and shrunk it down so it fitted on the real eye, and toggled the layer off and on, and it looks identical in brightness.

Oh, ok, may I have a screenshot?

Are you talking about Full Screen Preview mode (space bar)? And when you single-left-click to zoom in, the brightness changes?

Good work. Have you remembered Dither, and adding the noise layer? It's looking very bandy presently.

Once you've done the raw processing, use a gradient layer to replace the whole background: https://www.damiensymonds.net/preventing-banding-in-backdrops/

Please, @Cleyvosier? I'm trying to figure out why you're considering buying another (used) screen. Is it because you can't get either of your current screens to calibrate accurately?

Oh, I'm so sorry, I forgot. For that bit, leave your brush at 100% opacity, and actually change the colour you're painting with (by clicking on the foreground swatch in the toolbar) to 50% grey (128/128/128).

No, it's a pressure sensitivity setting. See the little icons to the left and right of the "Flow" setting in the options bar? One of them controls it, I can't remember which.

Interesting. Does it do the same with a mouse?

Hmmm ... everything looks ok there. Do you use a mouse or tablet?

Gosh, it shouldn't do that. May I have a screenshot of your whole screen, so I can see your brush settings? Very low. 10% at the most.

And it's not even the first page? That's weird.

I'm so sorry, I don't understand. Can you explain a bit further for me?

Well, no, I'm pretty sure the boys' shirts are supposed to be white.

Glad you like it.

I would try a Hue/Saturation layer for the water. Check the "Colorize" box, and try these values: Hue +185 Saturation +35 Lightness +15 Then fiddle to your personal taste.

Of course, a jpeg is all you should EVER post on a website.

Ok, so the Graphics Processor checkbox is definitely turned off?

Ok, please read this: https://www.damiensymonds.net/2011/09/cropping-tutorial.html Yes, I can help you with the chair. But of course Photoshop editing must not be done until raw processing is finished, so go ahead and do your raw processing then post the WHOLE photo for me.

Hi Rentia, which camera do you have?

So am I. I think Adobe have already covered this, but can you make sure these solutions are all ok?

I'm so sorry Jenn, I can't discuss this here, as it's covered in great depth in the Raw Class. Please consider it: https://www.facebook.com/damien.photoshop/photos/a.183682458346830.39021.183680248347051/1313016648746733/
